3.
Hazard description:Material is non-hazardous as shipped.
Route of entry:Inhalation, ingestion.
Information concerning When soldering, welding, hot staking, burning, wire brushing or melting,
to man and environment:potentially toxic fumes or dusts may be generated. Asthmatic disorders
may be aggravated by exposure to excessive fumes.
Classification system:The classification was made according to the latest editions of international
substances lists, and expanded upon from company data and literature.
NFPA/ HMIS ratings (scale 0-4): Health = 2, Fire =1, Reactivity = 0.
4.
General Information:For irregular breathing or respiratory arrest, provide artifical respiration.
After Inhalation:For unconsciousness, place patient stably in side position for transportation.
After Skin Contact:Generally does not cause skin irritation. Wash with soap and water if necessary.
After Eye Contact:Rinse opened eyes for several minutes under running water.
After Swallowing:Induce vomiting if concious. Seek medical attention in all cases.
5.
Suitable extinguishing agents:Dry powder, alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide.
For safety reasons unsuitable Do not use water jet for copper powder fires.
extinguishing agents:
Protective equipment:In case of brief exposure or low pollution, use respiratory filter device.
In case of intensive or longer exposure, use respiratory protective
device that is independant of circulating air.
Hazchem code:Not applicable.
6.
Person-related safety precautions:Not required.
Measure for environment protection:No possibility of leakage and spillage.
Measure for cleaning / collection:Not applicable.
7.
Handling
Information for safe handling:Particular attention should be paid to the eventual bonding and the soldering
processes. Some exhaust of fumes is expected under such processes.
When de-reeling from the spool, care should be taken such that the loose end
from the spool does not fly out and cause laceration.
Onsite job safety assessment should be carried out to determine the safe way
to handle reels or packages containing wire.
Storage
Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles:No special requirements.
Information about storage in one common storage facility:Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Stay away
from storage area under direct sunlight.
Further information about storage conditions:None.
Storage class
Class according to regulation on flammable liquids: Not applicable.
8.
Additional information about design of technical facilities: No further data.
Personal protective equipment
General hygienic measures:Keep away from foodstuffs and beverages. Wash hands at the end of work. Respiratory protection:Not normally needed at ambient temperature. Use NIOSH/OSHA certified
respirator in confined spaces or if fumes, mist or dust develop from heating. Protection of hands:Protective gloves recommended.
Eye protection:Safety glasses recommended.

10.
Stability and reactivity:Stable.
Hazardous polymerization:No dangerous polymerization known.
Thermal decomposition:No decomposition if used according to product specifications.
Hazardous decomposition CO, CO2, and isocyanate fractions.
products:
Conditions to avoid:High temperature. At elevated temperature, enamel might burn and emit
potentially toxic fumes.
Materials to avoid:Concentrated acids and bases. Bare wire (copper) should not be in contact with
acetylene gas. Copper contact with acetylene gas may produce copper acetylide
which is shock sensitive. Finely divided copper in contact with finely divided
bromates, chlorates or iodates of barium, calcium, magnesium, potassium,
sodium or zinc will explode under heat, percussion and sometimes light friction.
Copper reacts violently with chlorine, chlorine trifluoride, ethylene oxide, fluorine,
hydrogen peroxide, hydrazine, mononitrate, hydrogen sulfide and lead azide.
